IVM. T. SLOGUM, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA.

Specification.forming part of Letters Patent No. 47,752, dated May 16,1865.`

` .Tr all whom lzit may concern Be it known that I, WILLIAM T. SLocUM,of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, have invented an Improvement inTobacco-Pipes; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full7clear, and exact description of thesame, reference being had to theaccompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon.

My invention consists in a tobacco-pipe with the usual bowl, combinedwith a stem having a perforated projection and a detachable reservoir,4the said stem being so divided by a partition that the smoke fromthetobacco must pass from one portion of the stem into the reservoirbefore again entering the stem, and so that the moisture from the upperportion of the latter may collect in the reservoir without descendinginto the bowl. i

In order to enable others skilled in the art to make my invention,I willnow proceed to describe its construction.

On reference to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of thisspecification, Figure l is a sectional view of my improved tobaccopipe,and Fig. 2 a plan view.

A is the bowl ofthe pipe, which` may be of Vany suitable form, and towhich is connected the lower end of a stem, B, the latter being providedwith the usual mouth-piece, C.

Across the interior of the stem B, near the lower end of the same,extends a partition, a, and at the under side of the stern, directlybelow this partition, is a projection, b, on which are cut threadsadapted to those in the neck of a detachable cup or reservoir, E.

In the projection b are two openings, m and x', one of whichcommunicates with the opening in the stem above the partition a and theother with the opening below the said partition, both openingscommunicating with the interior of the reservoir E. The smoke from theburningtobacco passes, first, into the opening in the stem below thepartition a, down the openingan in the projection b, into the reservoirE, from the latter through the opening zr', into the opening in the stemabovethe partition a, and through the mouth-piece to the mouth of thesmoker.- I

In consequence of theextended surface with 'which the smoke is thus`brought into contact, it is considerably cooled before reaching themouth, while the moisture which collects in the upper portion of thestem iiows from the latter through the opening x into the reservoir,which may be detached and cleansed as frequently as required. y

I claim as my invention and desire to secure by Letters Patent- The stemB, with its partition a, projection b, and openings m and x', incombination with the detachable reservoir E and the bowl A,substantially as and for 'the purpose specified.

In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in thepresence of two subscribing witnesses.
